The Capitals continue their comeback against the Penguins thanks to a greasy goal by Evgeny Kuznetsov of Chelyabinsk, Russia. Kuzy’s goal was preceded by one by Dmitry Orlov of Novokuznetsk, Russia; and Alex Ovechkin of Moscow, Russia.

Alex Ovechkin started the play off with a shot right to the gut of Matt Murray, strong enough to serve up a rebound right up the slot. There Kuzy struck, surging right into the paint to put the puck on net.

There was much celebration.

Kuzy’s had an up-and-down season. After a solid start, he had gone without a grape since January 9, and has put just twelve shots on goal in his last seven games. Here’s hoping this dirty crash-the-net marker gets him back on the right track.

молодец!

So I guess no one in Pittsburgh is involved in the Russia investigation
